Haddock braised in spicy tomato sauce with olives, capers and spinach. I boiled some tiny potatoes alongside and tossed them in at the end, but we ended up thinking they were superfluous. I don’t think many of them got eaten. Pasta would have been a better choice, but we are overwhelmed with all kind of potatoes right now.

Thanks for this - I got an eggplant in my Odd Bunch (similar to Misfits) box. My husband isn't a fan but maybe he would like it this way. I did think of parm - your version looks very appetizing compared to some I've seen. I assume that is toasted breadcrumbs on top?
Yes, breadcrumbs on top. I used Jamie Oliver’s recipe from New York Times Cooking. I like it because the eggplant is baked plain rather than breaded and fried. You can taste the eggplant more that way.

Thanks for the report! So interesting to see that part of the world. I feel like we always go to the same places…

Miso salmon, coconut brown rice with ginger, and spinach. My sister was chopping garnishes while I was cooking dinner, and we ended up with way too many (cashews, cilantro, peppers) so we ended up just strewing it all over our plates and calling this our “Love, Actually” decorated dinner, inspired by the scene where Rowan Atkinson’s shop clerk keeps adding more and more decorations to a gift wrapped piece of jewelry.

Thanks for sharing your trip! The reef looks very healthy. That is a serious current going on in a couple of the videos!
I have to say that I am impressed that you can travel so far and then stay for what seems to be a relatively short trip. I don’t think I could do that.

Monday: roasted sweet potatoes, broccolini and delicata squash with miso ginger sauce and black sesame seeds
We have started getting weekly delivery from our community fish share again because this year they gave up their requirement that you had to accept the “fish of the week” and are now offering a la carte from what’s available. This week we chose tuna and salmon. Last night we had the tuna seared with soy dipping sauce, rice and a cucumber-pepper salad.

Not food, but a couple of food adjacent gifts I got this year. I have a menu board in my kitchen. I used to put the week’s meal plan on there, but it led to many disagreements over what to actually have. So then I just started putting the day’s dinner on it. This still caused disagreements between various family members, so my nephew got me this cover for it for it for Christmas. It’s great. Now I only uncover the board and write what I am making if I am open to suggestions. Otherwise I leave this cover on and people just show up and eat what I decided to make. Nobody actually cares enough to go ahead and make themselves something different for dinner, they just like to complain 😂
And then my husband got me this cute little painting of an ice cream cone from a gallery in one of our vacation spots because I love ice cream.

Christmas dinner was risotto with roasted broccolini, wild mushrooms and slow roasted beef tenderloin
The vegetarian version for my sister and me
A simple chicken and bell pepper stir fry for the 26th
And last night I didn’t feel like cooking much so just took the leftover Christmas risotto and reheated it with added peas, ground sautéed chicken sausage, and the leftover wild mushrooms, roasted until crispy

you have an experts way w many items.
especially salmon , my favorite fish.
locally its relatively expensive , duh , and not fresh enough .
TJ''s wild caught , unfortunately is mostly tails
I look from time to time
w the iDS in mind.
We get the salmon from our fishmonger. He brings a truck to the farm stand near my house on Tuesdays and Fridays. They go to the fish pier in Boston every morning and just bring what looks the best to various markets around. They email a list of what they are anticipating being able to bring two days before the truck comes. You can request items that are not on that list as well, and he will bring them if he can find them. That was my mistake with the cod. He did not have it on the list, and did not buy any to sell from the truck, but picked up the pieces I asked for. Next time I will just ask for “best available.”
Last night we had rice and bean bowls with guacamole, salsa, peppers and onions, cabbage slaw, low fat cheddar cheese, etc. That white line behind the bowl is the veining in the black soapstone counters I have in the smaller kitchen off my dining room. My nephew is home from grad school for the winter break and is staying in the room where I usually pop the dinner plates for photos, so the lighting will be wonky on my plates for the next couple of weeks.

Cod in a spicy tomato olive sauce with spaghetti. The cod was from our fishmonger but did not taste as sweet and fresh as usual, which was disappointing.

I’m keeping it small and simple this year with a slow roasted rosemary crusted beef tenderloin for the beef eaters. I am also making an herbed risotto with a roasted wild mushroom topping for the mushroom eaters (me!) and a few roasted vegetables- probably broccolini, carrots, and maybe winter squash. I don’t feel like baking bread, so I am not going to. We don’t do appetizers or dessert either. My niece bakes cookies every year so there will be some of those around if anyone decides they want something sweet.

Sunday we had extremely garlicky spaghetti with spinach and toasted bread crumbs. No vampires approached the house that night!
Last night, broiled chicken paillard with a honey mustard glaze, rosemary roasted potatoes, and broccolini

Some dinners from this week:
Miso salmon with roasted broccoli and rice
I had a bunch of slices of garlic bread in the freezer leftover from various other dinners and wanted to get rid of it, so I made pappa e pomodoro. I blended it up with a stick blender which is not traditional.
Sweet and sour eggplant with garlic chips, from NYTimes cooking. Served with rice.

Sunday we had a NY Times cooking recipe for roasted carrots with whipped tahini. I roasted some yogurt and lemon marinated chicken thighs with the carrots, and added garlicky spinach. I also made some cilantro-garlic flatbread.
Yesterday I made another NYTimes cooking recipe: winter vegetable curry with apple raita. The original recipe had potatoes and chickpeas but I eliminated both since I thought it would be too filling with the rice. The apple raita was a little strange on its own but tasted good mixed into the curry. I added pomegranate arils just because I had them in the fridge.

Not too many photos from Monday, as we did exactly what I said we were going to do: sit on the deck and take in the view and read books. Here’s a picture of the sunset from our deck.
And the afterglow, looking towards the hotel
Dinner was at Solaris again. Unfortunately, we did not like it as much this time. Amuse bouche of smoky gazpacho. This was really tasty.
Husband ordered the rockfish. It looked pretty, but was a little bland.
I had the catch of the day, which was grouper. This was better than the rockfish, but still a little bland. The pickled parsnip salad on top was the best part.
We shared a dessert of pavlova with pistachio cream and strawberry-basil ice cream. This was our favorite part of the meal.
And that ends our quick visit to Bermuda. We will be back.
